Commercial Space

The Opportunity

Phase 1 fully leased. Phase 2 is your chance.

Waves District Phase 2 offers 12 street-level commercial units now pre-leasing within one of Cape Canaveral's most anticipated mixed-use developments. Located at the corner of Astronaut Blvd and West Central Blvd — directly on A1A — this is the Space Coast's most connected commercial address.

Phase 1, approximately 17,000 SF of retail, leased out completely. Phase 2 delivers 17,141 SF of ground-floor commercial space with units ranging from 1,130 to 2,810 SF, combinable to fit your concept. Delivery is proposed for 2027.

Your Built-In Customer Base

Your customers live and stay above you.

Phases 3 and 4 will bring 104 nightly vacation rental units — the only nightly short-term rentals permitted near Port Canaveral — totaling approximately 200 beds. Those guests, plus long-term residents in the building above, become your first customers before you even open your doors.

Beyond the building, your storefront sits at the crossroads of one of Florida's highest-volume trade areas:

  • Blocks from Port Canaveral, the world's busiest passenger cruise port

  • blocks from the future $140 million Bowen Aquarium

  • in the center of 10 hotels in a 5 block radius

  • First stop light from Orlando travelers via SR-528, connecting you to OIA roughly 45 miles

  • westAerospace & defense workers from SpaceX, NASA, and Kennedy Space Center

  • Space Coast tourists and Kennedy Space Center visitors, just 15 miles north

  • Cocoa Beach visitors, less than 2 miles to the south

Phase 2 Commercial Units

A Community Already in Motion

You're joining a destination, not starting one.

Waves District already has operating tenants drawing daily foot traffic — Zarrella's Italian and Wood Fired Pizza and Surf Style retail are open and on-site. Add a resort-style pool, 261 parking spaces, and a built-in transient and permanent population, and the ecosystem is already working before you sign a lease.

Who Belongs Here

We're curating the right mix.

The landlord is actively seeking local operators and regional concepts to complete the tenant roster. Ideal uses include food and beverage, boutique retail, health and beauty, fitness, and personal or professional services.

If your business thrives on steady foot traffic, a loyal local base, and a constant flow of visitors — this was built for you.

Location Location Location

The Space Coast's most connected commercial address.

Waves District sits just blocks from Port Canaveral — the world's busiest passenger cruise port — at the first stoplight heading east on SR-528 from Orlando. That puts your business at the intersection of one of Florida's most visited coastal corridors, with a customer base that never stops moving.

Rockets launch from your backyard. Cruise ships depart by the millions. And 45 minutes west, Orlando International Airport connects you to the world.

This isn't just a great place to open a business — it's the future downtown of Cape Canaveral. The expansion of Waves District is anchoring a walkable, bikeable, pedestrian-friendly Central Boulevard that the community has been building toward for years. Your storefront won't just benefit from today's traffic — it'll grow with the neighborhood.
